Year: 2025

Type: data-paper

Abstract: Australia’s diverse native forests are valued for a wide range of benefits and services that they provide, including wood products. Around 0.05% of Australia’s native forest is harvested annually from our publicly owned multiple-use forests to sustainably produce important wood products such as house frames, decking, flooring, furniture, power poles, pallets, packaging and paper. Australia’s production native forests support diverse and unique biodiversity and have an important part to play in the fight against climate change. Australia’s native forest wood products industries face some significant challenges including, diminishing supply, climate change and government policy settings.
